PEMDAS is a rule telling us how to evaluate an expression in algebra (using parentheses, addition, subtraction, multiplication & division). Accordingly, you should submit the desired expression in that form, and not a an English narrative.
Also, I daresay that this topic is covered extensively in all algebra books, complete with examples worthy of study.
